Also based on a real story, Iron Will follows the courage of a young man who enters a 522-mile-long dog sledding race in hopes of winning enough money to save the family farm. On a more comical note, Snow Dogs is a fish-out-of-water tale about a Miami resident that has to travel to Alaska after he inherits a team of Huskies.
